A small piece of aluminum (atomic number 13) contains 10^15 atoms (The atomic number is the number of protons; it determines the (positive) electric charge of the nucleus and, thus, the number of electrons in a neutral atom.) If the piece of aluminum has a net positive charge of 3.0 uc what fraction of the electrons that the aluminum had when it was neutral would have had to be lost?

9. an object is moved from the outdoors, which is at a temperature of 100 ºf, to a room at a temperature of 70 º f. what happens to the object when it’s placed in the room with a lower temperature? the object gives off more energy than it absorbs until it reaches a new lower thermal equilibrium where the amount of energy absorbed and given off is the same. the object gives off the same amount of energy as it absorbs until it reaches a new lower thermal equilibrium where the amount of energy given off is greater than the amount of energy it absorbs. the object gives off more energy than it absorbs until it reaches a new higher thermal equilibrium where the amount of energy absorbed and given off is the same. the object absorbs more energy than it gives off until it reaches a new lower thermal equilibrium where the amount of energy absorbed and given off is the same.
